Summary

We are seeking an experienced, motivated Nurse Colposcopist to join our Gynaecology team and help deliver a safe, high-quality colposcopy service. You will independently assess, diagnose and treat patients referred through the NHS Cervical Screening Programme and other pathways, providing expert clinical care alongside kindness and clear communication.

Many patients attending colposcopy are anxious or distressed, so this role needs both clinical skill and a compassionate, patient-centred approach. You will work closely with consultants, colposcopists, nurses, cytology and histopathology teams, and screening services, and you will help the service meet national standards.

• Carry out colposcopic assessment of the cervix, vagina and vulva, including interpretation of findings and taking biopsies.

• Perform treatment such as large loop excision of the transformation zone (LLETZ) and other local therapies, in line with competence and local protocols.

• Make clinical decisions about management, follow-up and discharge, and develop management plans following national guidance.

• Obtain informed consent and make sure patients understand their results, treatment options and next steps.

• Recognise complications or emergencies and respond or escalate promptly.
